Summary: | Image enhancement is a very powerful tool to improve the quality of an image for human viewing. It can reduce the noise, blurring and increasing the contrast range of an image. Medical images such as x-ray image usually present characteristics like low contrast of image ratios. Therefore, foreign body in soft tissue is very difficult to detect especially involve foreign materials that is non-radiopaque such as rubber, wood and thorn. This paper introduces foreign body detection using Fuzzy Histogram Hyperbolization image enhancement system. The objectives of this project are to design and develop an image enhancement by using Fuzzy Histogram Hyperbolization (FHH) technique and require interpretation and feedback from a expertise evaluator about the effectiveness of the output result image. The scope of this project is limited to the patient with suspected fishbone impaction in a part of human body like esophagus area. In the future, this project will help doctor to identify present fish bone within the esophagus from x-ray images to avoid serious complications cause by fish bone. |
